Speed up Your Metabolism
The M word...Metabolism
Metabolism can mean many things to you; how fast your burn food, how skinny you are, how fat your are, etc.
What metabolism really means is: Metabolism is the process by which your body converts what you eat and drink into energy. During this complex biochemical process, calories in food and beverages are combined with oxygen to release the energy your body needs to function. Even when you're at rest, your body needs energy for all its "hidden" functions, such as breathing, circulating blood, adjusting hormone levels, and growing and repairing cells.
This info comes directly from the Mayo Clinic.
Foods you eat can affect your metabolism differently, for instance, eating protein or carbs causes more calories to be burned during the metabolism process of said macro nutrients.
